“Finding something so novel that it might be included in textbooks as fundamental knowledge is every scientist’s dream,” says Prof. Dr. Jan Paradies, a professor at Paderborn University. Paradies, a chemist, recently discovered a previously unprecedented reaction in which an entire molecular fragment migrates to another location in the particle.

A team led by Paderborn scientists Professor Thomas D. Kühne and Professor Christian Plessl has succeeded in becoming the first group in the world to break the major “exaflop” barrier – more than a trillion floating-point operations per second – for a computational science application. With this accomplishment, they have set a new world record.
